Psalms 6:8-10 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Reader, do not fail to remark the holy triumph here expressed, and with which the Psalm concludes, as the sure result of covenant love, both as it belongs to our glorious Head, and, in him, to all his members. Who that reads this can overlook the scripture in which the prophetical language of this Psalm, as referring to the person of Jesus, is brought forward as then to be finally fulfilled, in which the very words the master of the house shall say are already recorded, and are exactly the same as here? See Luke 13:27. And who that compares both scriptures, but must immediately be convinced that it is principally with an eye to Jesus this Psalm was written, whatever personal afflictions David Himself, the writer of it, might be exercised with.

Psalms 6:8-10

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
